Hi, today I was playing and after the game, I open up my breach and the little oring is torn apart. It's the O-Ring that goes over the little hole. My field know-it all said that my fps would be affected greatly by this. Is this a huge deal? Do I need one right away?

you shouldnt have out of ordinary wear on the bolt.... the breech rod still locks the breech in the same spot

k, thanks. I guess once I get eyes installed i'll get some type of repair kit with all of the o-rings...it'd be good to have.

A quote from one of the Master Techs (if memory serves, it was Russ).

Its not a seal so much as a bumper.

Its basically so the breech doesnt bang down on the body when you close it.
